 ARTICLE III 
 DEFERRAL ELECTIONS 
 3.1 Elections to Defer
Compensation. 
 (a) Deferral Elections. In accordance with the rules established by the Committee and subject to
requirements of the Code and Section 7.1 below, a Participant may make a Deferral Election to defer up to 100% of Compensation relating to services to be performed in the year(s) following the end of the taxable year in which the deferral
election is made. A Deferral Election made before the end of a given calendar year may relate to (1) Salary for services to be performed in the following Plan Year and/or (2) Bonuses relating to services to be performed during the
Company’s fiscal year beginning in the following Plan Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Committee may permit a deferral election for a Bonus to be made up until 6 months before the end of the 12 month service period to which the
Bonus relates, provided the Bonus qualifies as “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 409A(a)(4)(B)(iii) and applicable regulations issued thereunder. 
 (b) Automatic Reduction in Deferral Election. Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a) above, a Participant’s Deferral Election for a
Plan Year shall be automatically reduced to the extent necessary to ensure that the Company is able to (i) satisfy its required state, federal or other tax withholding obligations in respect of any amounts payable to the Participant for a Plan
Year, (ii) satisfy its legal obligation to comply with any applicable wage garnishment orders in effect and (iii) properly administer the Participant’s valid elections, if any, made in accordance with Code Section 125.

 (c) Special Rules for Deferral of Calendar Year 2005 Bonuses. Notwithstanding the timing rules set forth in
Section 3.1(a), Participants may elect to defer the Bonus otherwise payable to a Participant during the Plan Year January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005, so long as the deferral election is made prior to the beginning of the
relevant Plan Year, subject to Code Section 409A and the relevant transition rules in Section 885(f) of the America Jobs Creation Act and Treasury Regulations issued thereunder. 
 (d) Payroll Deductions. Compensation Deferrals shall be made through regular payroll deductions, and will be limited to the extent
necessary to satisfy applicable tax withholding, benefit plan contribution requirements, and any amounts necessary to satisfy any wage garnishment or similar type obligations. 
 (e) Irrevocable Election. Once made, Deferral Elections shall remain in force for the applicable Plan Year unless the Participant
ceases to be an Eligible Employee, in which case contributions made while an Eligible Employee shall remain in the Plan until distribution as elected in accordance with Article VII. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Eligible Employee who
participates in the Autodesk, Inc. Executive Incentive Plan may elect to revoke or change his or her Deferral Election for his or her Bonus for the 2008 Plan Year; provided, that the Bonus qualifies as “performance-based compensation”
under Code Section 409A(a)(4)(B)(iii) and applicable regulations issued thereunder. Such election to revoke or change his or her Deferral Election shall be made no later than July 31, 2008.

 3.2 Discretionary Contributions by the Company. The Company may, in its sole
and absolute discretion, make contributions (“Discretionary Contributions”) to the Account or a specific Plan Year Account of one or more Participants at such times and in such amounts as the Board may determine. 
 3.3 Investment Elections. The Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, provide each Participant with a list of
investment Funds available for hypothetical investment, and the Participant may designate, in a manner specified by the Committee, one or more Funds that his or her Account or specific Plan Year Account will be deemed to be invested in for purposes
of determining the amount of Income to be credited to his or her Account or specific Plan Year Account. The Committee may, from time to time, in its sole and absolute discretion, select a commercially available fund to constitute the Fund actually
selected. The Investment Return of each such commercially available Fund shall be used to determine the amount of Income to be credited to Participants’ Account and Plan Year Accounts under Section 4.1(c). 
 (a) In making the designation pursuant to this Section 3.3, the Participant may specify that all or any one percent (1%) multiple
of his or her Account be deemed to be invested in one or more of the Funds offered by the Committee. Subject to such limitations and conditions as the Committee may specify, a Participant may change the designation made under this Section 3.3,
in such manner and at such time or times, as the Committee shall specify. If a Participant fails to elect a Fund under this Section 3.3, or if the Committee does not provide such Participant with a list of Funds pursuant to this
Section 3.3, then the Participant shall be deemed to have elected a balanced Fund or similar investment Fund designated by the Committee. 
 (b) The Company may, but need not, acquire investments corresponding to those designated by the Participants hereunder, and it is not under any obligation to maintain any investment it may make. Any such
investments, if made, shall be Company property in which no Participant shall have any interest. In no event does the Company or Committee make any representation regarding, or guarantee of, investment performance. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 ACCOUNTS 
 4.1 Participant Accounts. The Committee shall establish and maintain an Account and
Plan Year Account for each Participant under the Plan. Each Participant’s Account or Plan Year Account may be further divided into separate subaccounts (“investment fund subaccounts”), corresponding to investment Funds elected by the
Participant pursuant to Section 3.3 or as otherwise determined by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate for proper Plan administration. A Participant’s Plan Year Account shall be credited as follows: 
  

 10 








 (a) As soon as administratively practicable after the payroll withholding is made for a
Participant, the Committee shall credit the portion of the Participant’s Compensation Deferrals that the Participant has elected to be deemed to be invested in a certain type of investment Fund to the investment fund subaccount corresponding to
that investment Fund. 
 (b) As soon as administratively practicable after the last day of the Plan Year or such earlier time or
times as the Committee may determine, the Committee shall credit the portion of the Participant’s discretionary contributions, if any, that the Participant has elected to be deemed to be invested in a certain type of investment Fund to the
investment fund subaccount corresponding to that investment Fund. 
 (c) At such time or times as the Committee may determine,
but not less frequently than monthly, each investment Fund subaccount of a Participant’s relevant Plan Year Account shall be credited with an amount equal to that determined by multiplying the balance credited to such investment fund subaccount
as of the last day of the preceding valuation period by the Investment Return for the corresponding Fund selected by the Company (“Income”). 
 ARTICLE V 
 VESTING 
 A Participant’s Account, including all Plan Year Accounts, shall be one hundred percent (100%) vested at all times. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 GENERAL DUTIES 
 6.1 Trustee Duties. The Trustee shall manage, invest and reinvest the Trust Fund
as provided in the Trust Agreement. The Trustee shall collect the income on the Trust Fund, and make distributions therefrom, all as provided in this Plan and in the Trust Agreement. 
 6.2 Discretionary Contributions. While the Plan remains in effect, the Company shall make contributions to the Trust Fund at
least once each quarter. As soon as administratively practicable after the close of each Plan quarter, the Company shall make an additional contribution to the Trust Fund to the extent that previous contributions to the Trust Fund for the current
Plan quarter are less than the total of the Compensation Deferrals made by each Participant plus Company discretionary contributions, if any, accrued as of the close of the current Plan quarter. 
 6.3 Department of Labor Determination. In the event that any Participants are found to be ineligible, for purposes of the Plan
remaining a “top hat” plan under applicable regulations, that is, not members of a select group of management or highly compensated employees,

  

 11 








 
according to a determination made by the Department of Labor (or a general pronouncement, ruling, opinion or regulation of the Department of Labor, or a judicial decision, which the Committee
believes would apply and render such Participants ineligible), the Committee may take whatever steps it deems necessary, in its sole and absolute discretion, to equitably protect the interests of the affected Participants and other Plan
Participants. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 DISTRIBUTIONS AND WITHDRAWALS 
 7.1 Distributions.

 (a) Election of Distribution Event. During an Enrollment Period, a Participant may elect on the Enrollment Form the
following as Distribution Event(s) which will trigger payment of the Distributable Amount in a Participant’s Plan Year Account to the Participant: (1) Retirement; (2) Termination; (3) another date specified by the
Participant. The death or Disability or a Participant will automatically be a Distribution Event under the Plan. 
 (b) Form
of Distribution. A Participant may elect either of the following forms of distribution with respect to each Distribution Event for which the Participant makes an election: 
 (i) Lump sum payable on the Payment Commencement Date; or 
 (ii) Up to ten (10) annual installments payable on the Payment Commencement Date and continuing on each anniversary of the Payment Commencement Date thereafter until fully paid. Ten
(10) annual installments shall be the default form of distribution in the absence of an election made by the Participant. If the Participant’s Distributable Amount is paid in installments, the Participant’s Plan Year Account shall
continue to be credited not less frequently than monthly with Income and the installment amount shall be adjusted annually to reflect Income until all amounts credited to the Participant’s Plan Year Account under the Plan have been distributed.

 Upon Disability or death, the Participant or his beneficiary will automatically receive the Distributable Amount in a lump
sum on the Payment Commencement Date. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, if the Participant’s Distributable Amount is less than the applicable limit under Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code upon the occurrence of
any Distribution Event, the Distributable Amount shall automatically be distributed in the form of a cash lump sum payment on the Payment Commencement Date. 
 (c) Change to Distribution Elections. A Participant may change his or her Distribution Election by submitting a Change Form, in a manner prescribed by the Committee; provided, however, that any
change shall not be effective for at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the Participant submits the Change Form. In addition, with respect to a specific payment date elected by the Participant, any change in the payment date must
be made at least twelve (12) months prior to the date specified in the election, and any change of Distribution

  

 12 








 
Election relating to a distribution other than as a result of Disability or death shall be effective only to the extent that the first payment pursuant to such changed election is deferred for a
period of at least five (5) years from the date such payment would otherwise have been made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a Participant who has ceased to be an Employee) may make an
election to change his or her previous Distribution Elections during the November 2007 and November 2008 enrollment periods in accordance with the transition relief under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and Internal Revenue Service
Notice 2007-86; provided, however, such election may apply only to amounts that would not otherwise be payable in 2007 and 2008, respectively, and may not cause an amount to be paid in 2007 and 2008, respectively, that would not otherwise be payable
in 2007 or 2008, respectively. 
 (d) Death. While Receiving Benefits. If a Participant is receiving annual installment
payments at the time of his or her death, then the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be paid the remaining annual installments as they come due. 
 (e) Payment of Distributable Amount. The Distributable Amount shall be paid to the Participant (or Beneficiary, if applicable) in accordance with Participant’s Deferral Election(s) on the
Payment Commencement Date, provided that if the applicable Distribution Event(s) is a date specified by the Participant, such specified payment date must be at least three (3) years after the end of the Plan Year for which the election is made.

 7.2 Unforeseeable Emergency Withdrawal. 
 (a) Triggering an Unforeseeable Emergency Hardship Withdrawal. The Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, accelerate the
date of distribution of a Participant’s Account because of an Unforeseeable Emergency at any time. “Unforeseeable Emergency” means a severe financial hardship to the Participant resulting from an illness or accident of the
Participant, the Participant’s spouse, or a dependent (as defined in Code Section 152(a)) of the Participant, loss of the Participant’s property due to casualty, or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising
as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant. The amount permitted to be distributed with respect to the Unforeseeable Emergency may not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy such emergency plus the amount necessary to pay taxes
reasonably anticipated as a result of the distribution, after taking into account the extent to which such hardship is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant’s
assets (to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship). This Section 7.2 shall be interpreted consistent with Code Section 409 a(2)(B)(ii) and applicable regulations issued thereunder.

 (b) Distribution Attributable to an Unforeseeable Emergency. Unless the Committee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, determines otherwise, distribution pursuant to this Section 7.2 of less than the Participant’s entire interest in the Plan shall be made pro rata from his or her assumed investments according to the balances in such
investments. Subject to the foregoing, payment of any amount with respect to which a Participant has filed a request under this Section 7.2 shall be made in a single cash lump sum within thirty (30) days after the Committee approves the
Participant’s request. Any remaining amounts in the Participant’s Account shall be distributed as provided in Section 7.1 above. 
  

 13 








 7.3 Inability To Locate Participant. In the event that the Committee is unable
to locate a Participant or Beneficiary within two (2) years following the Participant’s Distribution Event, the amount allocated to the Participant’s Deferral Account shall be forfeited. If, after such forfeiture, the Participant or
Beneficiary later establishes a proper claim for such benefit, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, such benefit (calculated immediately prior to the forfeiture) shall be reinstated without interest or income. 
 ARTICLE VIII 
 ADMINISTRATION 
 8.1 Committee. A Committee shall be appointed by, and serve at the pleasure of,
the Board. The number of members comprising the Committee shall be determined by the Board, which may from time to time vary the number of members. A member of the Committee may resign by delivering a written notice of resignation to the Board. The
Board may remove any member by delivering a certified copy of its resolution of removal to such member. Vacancies in the membership of the Committee shall be filled by the Board. 
 8.2 Committee Action. The Committee shall act at meetings by affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Committee.

written direction on behalf of the Committee.

 ARTICLE IX 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 9.1 Unsecured General Creditor. Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs,
successors, and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, claims, or interests in any specific property or assets of the Company. No assets of the Company shall be held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligations
of the Company under this Plan. Any and all of the Company’s assets shall be, and remain, the general unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Company. The Company’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured
promise of the Company to pay money in the future, and the rights of the Participants and Beneficiaries shall be no greater than those of unsecured general creditors. 
 9.2 Restriction Against Assignment. The Company shall pay all amounts payable hereunder only to the person or persons designated by the Plan and not to any other person or corporation. No
part of a Participant’s Account shall be liable for the debts, contracts, or engagements of any Participant, his or her Beneficiary, or successors in interest, nor shall a Participant’s Account be subject to execution by levy, attachment,
or garnishment or by any other legal or equitable proceeding, nor shall any such person have any right to alienate, anticipate, commute, pledge, encumber, or assign any benefits or payments hereunder in any manner whatsoever. If any Participant,
Beneficiary or successor in interest is adjudicated bankrupt or purports to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge any distribution or payment from the Plan, voluntarily or involuntarily, the Committee, in its sole
and absolute discretion, may cancel such distribution or payment (or any part thereof) to or for the benefit of such Participant, Beneficiary or successor in interest in such manner as the Committee shall direct. 
 9.3 Withholding. There shall be deducted from each payment made under the Plan, all taxes that are required to be withheld by
the Company in respect to such payment. The Company shall have the right to reduce any payment by the amount of cash sufficient to provide the amount of said taxes. 
 9.4 Amendment, Modification, Suspension or Termination. The Committee may amend, modify, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part at any time for any reason, except that no
amendment, modification, suspension or termination shall have any retroactive effect to reduce any amounts allocated to a Participant’s Account, provided that a termination or

  

 16 








 
suspension of the Plan or any Plan amendment or modification that will significantly increase costs to the Company shall be approved by the Board. In the event that this Plan is terminated, the
timing of the disposition of the amounts credited to a Participant’s Account shall occur in accordance with Section 7.1, subject to earlier distribution at the sole and absolute discretion of the Committee to the extent such exercise of
discretion is consistent with the acceleration of distribution rules under Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulations issued thereunder. 
 9.5 Governing Law. The Plan shall be construed, governed and administered in all respects in accordance with ERISA, the Code and other pertinent Federal laws to the extent applicable, and,
to the extent not preempted by ERISA, in accordance with the laws of the State of California (irrespective of the choice of law principles of the State of California as to all matters). 
 9.6 Receipt or Release. Any payment to a Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions
of the Plan shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims against the Committee and the Company. The Committee may require such Participant or Beneficiary, as a condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and
release to such effect. 
 9.7 Payments on Behalf of Persons Under Incapacity. In the event that any amount
becomes payable under the Plan to a person who, in the sole and absolute judgment of the Committee, is considered by reason of physical or mental condition to be unable to give a valid receipt therefore, the Committee may direct that such payment be
made to any person found by the Committee, in its sole judgment, to have assumed the care of such person. Any payment made pursuant to such determination shall constitute a full release and discharge of the Committee and the Company. 
 9.8 No Employment Rights; No Undertakings. Participation in this Plan shall not confer upon any person any right to be
employed by the Company or any other right not expressly provided hereunder. The Company makes no undertakings, covenants or representations to maintain the tax-deferred status of deferrals under the Plan or that any particular tax or legal
consequences will apply to Deferrals or Plan benefits. 
 9.9 Headings, etc. Not Part of Agreement. Headings and
subheadings in this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in the construction of the provisions hereof.
